I'm dubbing it the "Confidence Update". It feels much more like a human is driving vs a scared computer.

Indeed. I named the former version "Nervous Nettie" (as in Neural Nettie), since it resembled a nervous beginning driver.

Ok, so I just have to pile-on here regarding 2018.10.4. The AP is now amazing! I spent over an hour just driving around my area with AP engaged on streets where I would have never considered using it, and was just in awe in how much better it works now. So excited I'm going back out to drive again just for more grins...
I've read a lot of the posts here and I'm surprised no one has mentioned how fast it acquires lane markings and allows Autosteer now.
Before, you'd have to drive on a street/highway for a few seconds with black lane lines (on the display) for the steering wheel to show up. Now, the steering wheel shows up almost instantly turning onto a road with lanes or when lanes appear. Amazing.

Jimmy you definitely should post what you wrote here and not just a link.... it’s too relevant and interesting to keep on neural networks but then again, I like my shrimp with a side of spam
This isn't EAP. none of this is EAP
Bing bing.Uploading now. Have to run it by executive producer @buttershrimp. As soon as he approves minus gangsta rap it will be here.
Right, this seems like AP1 parity features wise, maybe works the same or better potentially, but its not doing anything new feature wise.
EAP is things like on-ramp and off-ramp transition and auto lane changes from what I recall.
Blader, this thread has to be painful to read...., at least there will always be that new supercruise commercial:

Viagra is now available as a generic. Perhaps try that. There’s a mail order service.
Really? Sure sounds like Autosteer+ to me.
Not sure if it pertains to the OEM one, but I have an aftermarket liftgate installed and I can remotely close.
I actually like this new feature very much and will probably use it quite a bit

Ok, how about “eap” instead of “EAP” (meaning it’s slightly enhanced).... At least it finally has the “AP” part working.

Sounds like incremental improvement to that subset of AP1 features and the added workarounds (see speed limit database) that AP2 is.
If there’s less lag in AP2 AS activation, for example, that would finally achieve AP1 AS activation delay quality.
I wonder if, with AP2, when approaching stopped traffic at low speed, one can activate TACC and then pull the lever one more time to activateAS without it cancelling TACC sometimes as is the case today.
Regardless, if you combine the incremental progress of this update with a) the pending update due within the next couple months and b) the new speedy MCU, people may not wait for the S/X interior refresh to buy a new one. Good stuff.

I noticed this right away. I have a hill right by my house and always pulled into the oncoming lanes. This is the best update thus far for auto pilot.
Very glad to see such big improvements in AutoPilot. Definitely feels much more confident and smooth. Handling crests perfectly for the first time, and cornering comfortably. Great step forward!

I was holding by breath; I thought you were going to let it tackle the roundabout
